[01:34] holy crap- I just learned Ted Turner needed something interesting to say in a speech, so he decided to say he was donating a billion dollars (and did): http://www.nytimes.com/2012/12/27/opinion/kristof-how-giving-became-cool.html [01:36] thanks for the link dashcloud [01:37] (for the giveawayoftheday) [01:37] hopefully it doesn't suck horribly- I'd feel really bad if it did [01:38] I'll give it a whirl a little later [01:38] just remember to install & activate today [01:53] 6 minutes left in the Barkley 2 kickstarter! [02:05] damn- just missed that one [02:05] here's a guide on how to replace the battery on your SNES cartridges: http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/pictures-how-to-replace-an-snes-cartridge-save-game-battery [02:06] that won't work so well [02:06] is there a better guide somewhere that doesn't involve soldering? [02:07] without soldering it's gonna end up flaky [02:07] soldering is easy and fun! [02:07] :P [02:08] if your hands are unsteady, one drink does wonders [02:08] three drinks and you grab the wrong end of the iron, not recommended [02:09] true story [02:09] I recommend a $5 "learn to solder" kit [02:09] Famicoman: story of my first defcon, actually [02:09] I could really see myself having a few drinks and grabbing the wrong end [02:10] it's not horrible, stung for an hour and had a blister for a week [02:10] you know. hot. [02:12] yeah, I layed my hand down on one once, got me between the fingers [02:19] woops [02:23] http://www.ebay.com/itm/MAKE-Magazine-EVERY-ISSUE-1-32-Wholesale-Lot-NO-RESERVE-/130824141084?_trksid=p2045573.m2042&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D27%26meid%3D4487694473214601287%26pid%3D100033%26prg%3D1011%26rk%3D3%26sd%3D190735466997%26 [02:23] damn [02:26] hey Famicoman [02:26] sup [02:27] i found 2 cpu magazines from early 2004 [02:27] there not on the computerpoweruser.com website from what i can tell [02:27] Nice. I scanned and put this up not too long ago, http://archive.org/details/Blacklisted411-Volume2Issue4 [02:48] looks like cclive doesn't support g4tv [02:48] :-( [04:04] http://www.ebay.com/itm/Assorted-Smart-Computing-Magazines-/330850165445?pt=US_Manuals_Resources&hash=item4d0834e2c5 [04:05] based on the picture there some magazines from the learning series [04:24] will people for archiveteam give me money to archive magazines? [04:25] anyways i bid on this one [04:25] its only $12 including shipping [04:25] you might be able to get a grant [04:25] oh [04:26] or start a kickstarter [04:26] /telethon [04:26] i will need to start puting money into a scanner [04:27] i want a good magic wand scanner cause that way the magazines don't have to be debinded [04:34] I'm wary of those wand scanners [04:34] I haven't seen one that looks like it isn't cheap [04:35] I want to get some sort of rig to mount my DSLR and take pictures at different intervals [05:06] so, you probably want to go to diybookscanner.org, and check out a guide there [05:07] there's a very simple one (involving a cardboard, glass, and a lamp) on instructables [05:07] ah cool, I didn't know there was a simpler one [05:08] also, that OCR software works reasonably [05:08] glad to hear it [05:09] the software itself has some engrish to it, which lowered my confidence, but the output is only slightly wonky [05:09] mostly just formatting errors [05:52] Famicoman: I mirrored diybookscanner.org this past summer [05:59] so here is a list of magazines in the item i'm buying: [06:19] learning series: v6i11, v6i12, v7i10, v8i7, v8i9, v8i12 [06:20] some from the reference series too [10:13] uploaded: http://archive.org/details/andriasang.com-images-20121226-mirror [14:16]
[14:16] nice classname [20:47] Hey, anyone willing to give some feedback on a kickstarter? http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/homebrew/2139776902?token=089341d8 [20:47] Not live yet. Need opinions on description, rewards. [21:07] Why are you setting yourself up for 100,000 pounds of income for a 1000 pound reward [21:10] We're not actually expecting that many backers. The $5k quid reward is somewhat of a laugh or a "maybe it'll happen". [21:11] Personally I think we'll end up well over £1000, but that's what we actually need to do what we want to do. (Stretch rewards we'll probably need...) [21:14] Do you think the rewards are too high-priced? [21:14] Yes, I think they're insane [21:14] I could use a few bucks, but if you give me a DIAMOND, I'll give you a HUG [21:14] lol [21:14] Heh, I didn't notice the £50 "name on a website" made it in. [21:15] What is your real number. [21:15] Stuff like the pint glass/t-shirt are priced around still having something left after we pay for the cost of the reward itself [21:15] Crap, need to leave [21:15] £1000 is the base of what we need for hardware. [21:16] * balrog_ wishes that the files that used to be at http://web.archive.org/web/20010503043520/http://www.ictpld.com/programverify/ still existed somewhere [21:16] Right [21:16] But that's the real number. [21:16] What number do you WANT [21:58] mistym: Are you buying a machine for virtualization? [23:39] resaving episode 2012-11-30 of wilkow show on the blaze [23:40] turns out that i got the 11-29 episode twice
